On Saturday afternoon, two teams looking to return to winning ways meet at the Voith-Arena as Heidenheim hosts Eintracht Frankfurt.
A draw in the capital last time outHeidenheim’s recent underwhelming Bundesliga form continued last time out, as the home team drew 2-2 at Union Berlin.
The result means that Frank Schmidt’s team has won just once in their last seven Bundesliga games. However, five of their previous seven league matches have ended in draws, and they have also suffered just one defeat in ten matches in the German top flight.
Despite the mixed recent run of league form, Heidenheim are just six points behind their sixth-place opponents, who occupy the last European spot in the Bundesliga.
Although Heidenheim haven’t won any of their last three home games in the Bundesliga, the only opposition team to win at the Voith-Arena in the previous seven league games is Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
Another draw for the EaglesThe visitors recorded a third straight draw in the Bundesliga last time out, as their home game with Wolfsburg produced a 2-2 draw.
The result means that Dino Toppmoller’s team are winless in their last four games in the German top flight. The fact that they have conceded at least two goals in three of their last four games has not helped their chances of claiming maximum points.
The visitors are in sixth place in the table, four points clear of seventh-place Hoffenheim in the race for the last European spot in the German top flight.
Frankfurt have been poor on their travels in the Bundesliga in recent months, as the Eagles have won just one of the previous seven away games in the German top-flight.
What am I backing?This game has a draw written all over it. Both teams lack confidence and need a win to get back on track. However, I am backing both to be disappointed by backing the game to finish all square.
